Learning Tree Profession / Occupation

Newest Review: ... of changing the course mid week if the content didn't meet your requirements; something very few course providers offer. The choice of courses Learning Tree offer are very impressive which is possibly why they're one of the more popular choices with large companies. The post course support is great, the tutor offered his personal e-mail as a point of contact for queries but there's also a large amount of literature available. My experience of Learning Tree was a good one, however this isn't and won't be the case for everyone. The price is the only down side, hence the 4 stars.... more

Being based in Birmingham, the main training provider in the area used by my company is Parity. Having attended a number of theirs course ranging from Prince 2 to Unix Shell Scripting, and a few courses from other suppliers, I believe I have a good selection for comparison. Learning Tree aren't the cheapest and when attending a London course you will pay the extra, however as I wasn't paying the bill cost didn't enter the equation. The course I took cover .NET Programming including C#, ASP.NET with Visual Studio however the course gives you the option to cover VB.NET intead. In compariosn to Parity, the room was much better equiped with ...  Read the complete review

I have been an IT developer for 3 years now and have had the pleasure of attending many courses at various centres. I attended a 5 day SQL 2000 course at Learning Tree a few months back and have since had the opportunity to compare it to several other providers. Firstly, the courses ain't cheap. I know the training centre is next to Euston Station and they have an on site canteen but I'm not sure this justified the extra 20% they seem to charge for similar courses. If you are paying for this yourself you may want to consider QA (also in London). They also do not cram as much into the time as some others. This can be good and bad - it gives you more ...  Read the complete review

Recently, Learning Tree came to the company I work at to teach a group of 9 of us about C. It was a three day course, for which we prepared the room, provided the equipment etc etc. Prior to the tutor arriving we were informed that the course was for intermediate level students and yet when the tutor introduced the course we were told it was for beginners. Now, this is simply not good enough as we were sold a product (at a considerable cost I might add – I don’t know how much as I am a mere employee, not part of a finance/management department, but rumour had it that it was costing £3000) that was not as described! This aside, we went through the ...  Read the complete review

I am a software developer. In the course of work, I have attended and arranged training for various users and developers. The training has ranged from basic computer training to using Word through to MCSE/MCSD type qualifications. Learning Tree is one of the biggest training centres around, so the odds of my eventually ending up there to sample their courses were very high. My department had sent its developers there for a couple of years. Then I joined the department, and we soon stopped using them. This is why. Learning Tree is a huge setup with offices all over the world, including America and Japan. Its range of courses is truly ...  Read the complete review
